draft-ietf-idr-bgp-ls-sr-policy-nrp-02
date: 12/12/2025
Reviewer: Susan Hares
Status: Needs -03 draft before publication request.

Shepherd's Detailed review:

Minor:
1) BGP-LS normally queries for control

Section 1, paragraph 4, - needs to indicate control plane

Old Text: /
   [I-D.ietf-idr-sr-policy-nrp] defines the extensions to BGP SR policy
   to specify the NRP which the SR Policy candidate path is associated
   with./
new text:/
   [I-D.ietf-idr-sr-policy-nrp] defines the extensions to BGP SR policy
   to specify the control Plane NRP ID which the SR Policy candidate
   path is associated with./


Section 1, paragraph 6 /
   The SR policy indicates the forwarding path
   of the data packet, and the NRP ID indicates the reserved resources
   along the path specified by the SR policy.  By associating the SR
   policy with a specific NRP, the forwarding path and resource
   reservation along the path are ensured.  BGP-LS reports the
   association between SR Policy Candidate Path (CP) and NRP-ID, which
   is used to synchronize the association information between the SR
   Policy CP and the NRP-ID./

Section 1, paragraph 6 /
   The SR policy indicates the forwarding path
   of the data packet, and the NRP ID indicates the reserved resources
   along the path specified by the SR policy in the control plane.
   By associating the SR policy with a specific NRP, the forwarding path and resource
   reservation along the path are ensured.  BGP-LS reports the
   association between SR Policy Candidate Path (CP) and NRP-ID, which
   is used to synchronize the association information between the SR
   Policy CP and the NRP-ID./


2. Section 2 - Clear indication of control plane versus data plane
Old text:/
  NRP ID: 4-octet domain significant identifier of Network Resource
   Partition.  Value 0 and 0xFFFFFFFF are reserved.  NRP ID is planned
   by network operator./

In my understanding, the control-plane NRP ID is passed via BGP.
Does this mean the NRP ID is assigned by the operator of the network
and assigned by configuration? Please clarify.


3. Section 3 - scaling editorial (optional)

Scaling of NRP expands for possible control plane NRP ID, but
the data plane can have fewer NRP IDs.  I am wondering if
this understanding would help this section.
